Norwegian Cruise Line is rolling out new itineraries in South America, Asia, Africa and beyond during the fall and winter of 2025-26, the company unveiled today.
With the newly released itineraries, the cruise line is hoping to capitalize on continued demand for its cruises heading into wave season. November sales were strong for Norwegian, which suggests that early 2024 will also be a positive period for the line.
“In recent years, we have begun to offer more diverse and longer itinerary options, and this positive momentum is a sure sign that our guests are delighted with our offerings and are looking forward to exploring the world with us,” says David J. Herrera, Norwegian Cruise Line’s president.

The new 2025-26 sailings include a variety of itineraries around the globe—including a few firsts. Norwegian Sun will be visiting a handful of ports in Asia for the first time, including Kyoto, Japan, and Jeju, South Korea. Norwegian Viva, the line’s newest ship, will set sail for the Caribbean from her new homeport of Galveston.
Other highlights include 11- to 14-day voyages in Australia and New Zealand aboard Norwegian Spirit; 12-day sailings in Africa on Norwegian Dawn; 14-day itineraries in South America aboard Norwegian Star; and 11- to 17-day cruises through the Panama Canal on Norwegian Jade. Meanwhile, Norwegian Viva, Norwegian Escape and Norwegian Sky will all sail to the Caribbean.
“Our new 2025 and 2026 itineraries will bring [travelers] more of what they want and more opportunities to enjoy their ideal vacation visiting their dream destination aboard any NCL ship,” says Herrera.
